Jib cranes are an economical solution for a wide range of handling tasks.
Those responsible at SD Formentechnik in Lüdenscheid have long been thinking in terms of networked process chains. For die-sinking EDM, the mold makers rely on Zimmer & Kreim: The Chameleon and the Alphamoduli workshop software integrate not only the EDM systems but also a machining center for electrode milling and the measuring machine.
The combination of edge and cloud in a common architecture enables modern production with real-time components and big data analysis. At the same time, this structure enables the flexible use of networked robots.

Linear conveyor modules are an alternative to rotary indexing tables for certain assembly tasks.

Turning devices that can safely and gently turn heavy loads by up to 90° are often used to turn heavy components or tools.

Hilpert Electronics is expanding its range of grippers with products from Schmalz for the efficient use of cobots from Techman. In the field of vacuum automation, Schmalz offers individual components such as suction pads or vacuum generators, but also end effectors that can be attached directly to the cobot.
The development of a new integration approach for a robot in manual assembly is a new research topic at the Chair of Production Systems (LPS) at Ruhr-Universität Bochum (RUB).
The integration of cloud and edge solutions in cyber-physical production systems opens up new potential in automation. Among other things, research focuses on economic solutions for the challenges of digitalization.
